Deactivation
To deactivate the sequential driving
mode, bring the gear lever back in
position D (Drive) ("automatic" driving
mode).
TRANSMISSION EMERGENCY
FUNCTION
(where provided)
Transmission operation is constantly
monitored to detect any fault. If a
condition that might damage the
transmission is detected, the
"transmission emergency" function is
activated.
In this condition, the transmission stays
th
in 4
gear, regardless of the selected
gear. Positions P (Parking), R (Reverse)
and N (Neutral) still work.
The
symbol might light up in the
display.
In the event of a "transmission
emergency" immediately contact the
nearest Alfa Romeo Dealership.
Temporary failure
If the warning light goes on, you can
confirm if the failure is temporary and
restore the gear's proper functioning by
proceeding as follows:
stop the vehicle;
engage P (Park);
bring the ignition device to STOP;
108
wait for about 10 seconds, then
restart the engine;
select the desired gear: if the problem
is not detected anymore the
transmission correct operation is
restored.
IMPORTANT In the event of a temporary
failure it is in any case recommended to
contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership as
soon as possible.
GEAR ENGAGEMENT DISABLING
SYSTEM WITHOUT BRAKE PEDAL
PRESSED
This system prevents you from moving
the gear lever from position P (Park) if
the brake pedal has not been previously
depressed.
To bring the gear lever to a position other
than P (Park), the ignition device must be
in position AVV (engine on or off) and the
brake pedal must be pressed.
WARNING
107) Never use position P (Park) instead of
the electric parking brake. Always engage
the electric parking brake when parking the
vehicle to avoid the accidental movement of
the vehicle.
108) If the P (Park) position is not engaged,
the vehicle could move and injure people.
Before leaving the vehicle, make sure that
the gear lever is in position P and that the
electric parking brake is engaged.
109) Do not shift the gear lever to N
(Neutral) and do not stop the engine when
driving on a downhill road. This type of
driving is dangerous and reduces the
possibility of intervening in the case of
variation of the road traffic or surface. You
risk losing control of your vehicle and
causing accidents.
IMPORTANT
35) Before selecting P (Park) mode, bring the
ignition device to position ON and press the
brake pedal. Otherwise, the gear lever may
get damaged.
36) Engage reverse only with the car
stationary, engine at idling speed and
accelerator fully released.
